Toyah plays The Drill with her songs and stories, a concert of her hits and career memories.
Toyah brings her Songs and Stories concert to The Drill on Friday 19 November 2027, with doors opening at 19:00 and the night running until 23:00. It's an intimate evening with her band, and the format is just what it sounds like: she sings her favourite hits and tells stories from her career in between. There's also a new book in the offing, so the storytelling side of things is a proper part of the night rather than just a bit of chat between songs.
If you're not familiar with her, Toyah was a colourful character of the 1980s post-punk New Wave scene and had considerable chart success with hits like 'It's A Mystery', 'I Want To Be Free' and 'Brave New World'. Beyond the recording career and her work as a TV presenter, she's also trod the boards, taking the lead role in the musical Anne Get Your Gun. This show follows her extensive UK tour, so it's a stop on a wider run of dates.
